Zola Jesus is an unashamed goth, with a huge voice. In 2012, she visited Australia to perform at the Vivid Live Festival. I loved Zola’s art but also had an inkling she’d be a great Take 5 guest, so I asked her to come in and co-host with me. It’s been a few years since, but as we hit the depths of winter and rug up in our best black attire I thought it’d be fun to dig this one out of the archives, and share it for the first time here on the podcast. Across textured sounds, we found out how a young girl from the rural Midwest found her way into incredible music.
